Severn Trent, a UK water company, endorses Unblocktober campaign for proper waste disposal and reducing sewer blockages.

Severn Trent, a UK water company, is endorsing the Unblocktober campaign to promote proper waste disposal and reduce sewer blockages. Last year, the company addressed 28,782 blockages, many preventable. Key advice includes flushing only urine, feces, and toilet paper, while avoiding fats, oils, greases, and wet wipes—often falsely marketed as flushable. Severn Trent annually extracts two and a half tonnes of non-flushable items, supporting drain health and environmental sustainability.
